Evernote
Pros
- Search still surfaces scraps you forgot you filed
- Stacks and notebooks map cleanly onto school-or-office habits
- Web clipper keeps research sessions from evaporating
- Tags and saved searches age well for archives
- OCR keeps whiteboard photos readable later
Cons
- Paid tier math loses to newer tools on monthly cost
- Free quotas and device limits pinch heavier accounts
- Kanban, formulas, and live databases live in Notion-class apps now
- Flagship feature cadence slowed after the peak hype years
ClickUp
Pros
- Views stack deep: list, board, Gantt, calendar, timeline, workload, and dashboards in one workspace
- Automations, custom fields, and templates scale from solo lists to portfolio governance
- Native chat, docs, and whiteboards reduce context switching versus bolting on extra apps
- Integrations and two-way calendar hooks cover Google, Microsoft, Slack-class stacks
- Brain and agent-style AI features ship inside the same surface as tasks and docs
Cons
- Sheer surface area triggers setup fatigue unless someone owns workspace hygiene
- Free-plan attachment limits bite quickly compared with note-first apps
- Mobile and desktop parity still lags the web for the newest power features
- Minimalists after a quiet daily planner often bounce to lighter task apps
